STEREO Science CenterStatus Report William Thompson NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Phase E Kickoff Meeting February 23, 2007
Archive Status Currently working: • Telemetry ingest • Archiving of MOC data products • Level-0 telemetry organized by year and month • Generating DSN schedule summary page • Archiving of instrument data • SECCHI, PLASTIC, SWAVES • Virtual Solar Observatory • Serving SECCHI and PLASTIC data • Software distributed through SolarSoft library • Organization of SPICE ephemerides within SolarSoft • SPICE orbit web browser, “Where is STEREO?”
STEREO Orbit Tool • Web-based tool for plotting STEREO’s position in the solar system. • Can also plot Ulysses and Messenger positions, Parker spiral. • Also prints out summary information. • Uses IDL RPC server, with a PHP front-end.
Beacon Status • Ephemerides and viewperiod files being generated for ground stations. • Successful tests of beacon reception Chilbolton, England and Koganei, Japan • Locked onto both spacecraft and recorded telemetry • Sent telemetry through socket connection to SSC server • Automatically processed telemetry into data files and web plots • Additional work needed send telemetry in realtime • Tests from Fairbanks, Alaska expected next week • Also processing realtime telemetry from DSN through MOC interface. • Processing SECCHI, IMPACT, PLASTIC • Realtime SECCHI beacon images are now online. • IMPACT/PLASTIC plots are imminent • SWAVES onboard software change by end of month
Beacon & Daily Summary Plots In-situ plots & data not yet “live”
Science Coordination Status • Science planning web pages: • Current plans • Archived as-run plans • DSN Schedule Summary • Weekly meeting minutes • Early Orbit Summary • STEREO Orbit Tool Planning Calendar & Meeting Minutes DSN Summary
Education & Public Outreach Includes coordination with NASA Portal Galleries, classroom activities, etc.
Future Work • Beacon processing: • Need new software from instrument teams (IMPACT, SWAVES) • Daily summary plots: • Same comments as above • Need to incorporate non-STEREO data • SolarSoft has software to retrieve WIND, ACE, SOHO data • Image/plot search tool • Plan to build on SOHO tool • “Latest events” pages under development
